Emilio’s Epic Summer
A Hilarious, Heartwarming Christian Adventure About Faith, Family, and Finding Your Purpose
What happens when a summer of soccer dreams turns into a taco-filled adventure of faith and unexpected purpose?
Twelve-year-old Emilio Reyes dreams of soccer glory, MVP medals, and catching the attention of a Barcelona scout. But after a disastrous microwaved spoon incident, his plans take an unexpected turn: instead of chasing soccer fame, Emilio must spend his summer working at his grandparents’ taco truck.
With his loyal sidekick Diego, an old journal left by his taco-preaching great-grandfather, and the unforgettable wisdom of his Abuelita, Emilio discovers that this summer might be about something much bigger than soccer. Between banana Bible verses, churro diplomacy, fiery salsa showdowns, and a unique ministry called “Gospel on Wheels,” his hilarious misadventures lead him toward a deeper understanding of faith and service.
As Emilio learns to pray through challenges, practice forgiveness, and use his gifts to help others, he discovers that serving God doesn't always happen in a church. Sometimes, it happens behind a taco counter, one meal and one act of kindness at a time.
Emilio’s Epic Summer is a funny, uplifting coming-of-age story that blends humor, family traditions, and biblical truth to inspire young readers to discover their purpose and share their faith in everyday life.
